The successful candidate will develop independent and collaborative research that integrates large-scale geodynamic and plate-reconstruction modelling with advanced statistical and machine-learning methods to investigate the deep-time controls on copper mineralisation. The role will involve developing reproducible computational workflows, generating predictive maps of copper-favourable environments, publishing original research in leading international journals, and presenting results at national and international conferences. The Research Fellow is expected to contribute across all three areas of academic activity: research, education, and service. This includes actively seeking external research funding, contributing to undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, supervising Honours, Masters and PhD students, mentoring early-career researchers, and engaging in outreach and service activities within the School, College and broader community. The allocation of effort across these areas will be discussed annually with the supervisor and aligned with the appointee’s research agenda and School needs. The position reports to Professor Rhodri Davies and offers the opportunity to play a leading role in interdisciplinary research that links numerical modelling, geological and geophysical data, and mineral systems science. The Person The successful applicant will hold a PhD in Earth Sciences, Geophysics, Computational Geoscience, or a closely related discipline, and will demonstrate a strong track record of independent research that integrates numerical modelling with geological or geophysical datasets. You will have experience with plate reconstruction tools such as GPlates and geodynamic modelling frameworks (for example G-ADOPT or equivalent), alongside demonstrated capability in statistical inference and/or machine-learning approaches. You will be able to articulate and prosecute an innovative interdisciplinary research vision, contribute new modelling or analytical methods, and integrate diverse datasets to deliver quantitative and predictive geological insights. A background or experience in mineral systems, mineral exploration, and/or economic geology is desirable but not essential. You will demonstrate a commitment to securing competitive external research funding, the ability and willingness to teach at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and a strong track record (or clear potential) in supervising and graduating high-quality research students. You will be a collaborative colleague with excellent communication skills, able to work productively in a cross-disciplinary academic environment and contribute positively to team-based research and teaching.
